Just Tug

IF the answers fail to come. YOU should never fear. NEED is not just for the young. A hand is always near. FRIEND, just call, I'll be right here. I'M only a reflective glance. SAILING by your side. RIGHT or left it doesn't matter. BEHIND the shadow, you decide. LIKE afternoons basking in sun. A warmth is never far. BRIDGE the gap deep in your heart. OVER come the past that doesn't part. TROUBLED time's don't need to win. WATER can cool the heated sin. I have time as God allows. WILL be here when you need me. EASE your pain as best I can. YOUR only lonely out to sea. MIND the helm and you'll be free. For the acrostic contest
